Download link doesn't seem to work though. I have an old version here in attachment.

Thank, bro. Now I have a full picture for Family BASIC.

Re: Tool to compile Family Basic program to .NES file

Interestingly, but which category I'll need to carry my future game? Is it hack of Family BASIC or homebrew? P. S.: I hope that the final version of the utility anybody still finds itself in and upload it.

Thanks to everyone who posted this utility. Nevertheless, she is no longer needed. My good friend translated it into Russian and simplified its use. No you don't need to put rom of Family BASIC - it's already embedded in utility. Just select your savestate and enter the name of your game. Here is it:

I like this improved version of STTONESIs it possible to translated it into English?

I was never able to figure out what exact board the converted ROMs need. Someday I'd like to put NES BASIC games onto real carts.

Have you figured anything out?

IIRC, the tricky thing is that it not that it needs to be an MMC1 cart with PRG ROM, battery-backed PRG RAM, and CHR ROM (i.e. a pretty generic S[AIJK]ROM) but specifically that you need to load the content of your game into the cart's PRG RAM first.

Zoom in on a photo and see it's the key next to semicolon, which is probably the quotation mark key on your keyboard.

I remember there where at least one key I never could access on VirtuaNES (and another key didn't work on Nestopia) no matter what. But I don't think it was colon. It was probably the kana key or something.
